One of the town’s highlights is the Foxford Woollen Mills, one of the last working mills in Ireland producing vibrantly coloured wool which is then transformed into magnificent works of wearable art. Established in 1892, it was the brainchild of Agnes Morrogh-Bernard, a Sister of Charity, who was charged with the task of founding a convent in Foxford.
